Hello, please i need help i am having problem with "BOOTMGR is missingPress Ctrl Alt Del to restart" please can someone help me out? cause i was using Live USB for Linux but i extracted it to my external HD but i just keep getting that message but i already know about multi boot program but i need other solution on how to fix this

Any reason for this? Unetbootin (or alternatives) are the right tool for this job.

If you've just transferred the files to your external HD your files should be there, but your system may not know to boot from the external rather than local HDD. Is the boot order correct for what you're attempting? (dd wil have the same issue)

Which Live OS are you using? (assuming BackTrack given forum topic), without using unetbootin you can boot the iso, then use the install option, pointing the installer at the correct external HDD. (Make sure you pick the right option, making a mistake couldwill hose your local system).

Hope this helps, but we'll likely need more info than you've provided to assist further if not.

Well it seen my Boot has problem the Live CD i tried was Debian with Fedora .

Yeah it's formatted as NTFS, but i even try to install Fedora on HD but i just keep getting unable to install also no enough space but the space is more than enough cause it said it can't partition the HD, i guess i would have to get external HDD, but when the HD still on NTFS when i use program like YUMI everything would be fine .

I read the info in the link, it says to format with FAT32. Read the instructions m0wgli provided, it really looks like your solution is in there.
